5-HT$_{2C}$ receptors have been considered as therapeutic targets for the treatment of various central nervous system disorders such as depression, anxiety, epilepsy, schizophrenia and sleep disorders. We chemically synthesized KKHQ80114 (K14) and KKHQ80109 (K09), selective 5-HT$_{2C}$ agonists, with the purpose of developing therapeutic agents for the treatment of obesity. The objective of this work is to investigate analytical methods of these compounds in the plasma and urine of rats by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. In this experiment, K14 was determined in plasma and urine by using K09 as internal standard. Calibration curves give a good linearity in plasma (r$^2$=0.9993) and urine (r$^2$=0.9988). Among hexane, ethyl acetate and diethyl ether, the highest peak was observed in diethyl ether. However, ethyl acetate was used since more interfering peaks were observed with diethyl ether. Inter-day precision and accuracy were determined in the ranges of 50-500 ng/mL for plasma and 10-500 ng/ml for urine. Quantitation limits were 50 ng/mL plasma and 25 ng/ mL urine. These data may be applicable for further studies of these compounds including absorption and metabolism due to no pharmacokinetic or analytical data available.

Eleven water samples were analyzed for organophosphorous pesticides in Suncheon Bay with Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry. For the first time in Korea, Kitazin-P was found in marine environment and the concentrations ranged upto 2.2mg/l. The regional and temporal variations of the pesticide were also studied.

The volatile composition of veal has yet to be reported and is one of the important factors determining meat character and quality. To identify the most important aroma compounds in veal from Holstein bull calves fed one of three diets, samples were subjected to solid-phase microextraction (SPME) combined with gas chromatography-quadrupole mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Most of the important odorants were aldehydes and alcohols. For group A (veal calves fed entirely on milk for 90 d before slaughter), the most abundant compound class was the aldehydes (52.231%), while that was alcohols (26.260%) in group C (veal calves fed starter diet for at least 60 d before slaughter). In both classes the absolute percentages of the volatile compounds in veal were different indicating that the veal diet significantly (p<0.05) affected headspace volatile composition in veal as determined by principal component analysis (PCA). Twenty three volatile compounds showed significance by using a partial least-squared discriminate analysis (PLS-DA) (VIP>1). The establishment of the global volatile signature of veal may be a useful tool to define the beef diet that improves the organoleptic characteristics of the meat and consequently impacts both its taste and economic value.
